Getting back in the game!

I haven't created anything new in a long while, and recently realized how much I missed it! So, here are some of my older pieces, and I would love your opinions of them. Thank you!

This one is from a college class. It turned out a lot better than I expected, but I drew the gridlines too dark so I'm really not sure how to finish it out (or if I should even try to finish the background).

This was a still-life project with soft pastels.

This one was my first "real" project in high school. A portrait of a friend.

It looks like you have a lot of talent! Just have fun and draw as often as you can. You will find that over a period of time your work will look better and better.

I suggest drawing. Just use the tools you have around to get started. When you can, visit an art supply store and gradually add the the pencils and paper that interest you. Once you are back at it, stop in at a book store and take a look at the drawing books that are available.

Hi Megan, you have great talent... I agree with Paul to just carry on and enjoy... As for re-working the first picture I wouldn't because you would also have to deal with the faint negative grid lines going across the face. It stands on it's own as a piece of work at a point in time when you were younger. Wish I could draw as well as this.
